I think it's because of the negative connotation of the word "bug" that they changed it.

I think they changed it just to include all their products.

Growing up it was "Slug Bug", and exclusive to Beetles ("Bugs"). I never slugged my little brother when I saw a Microbus. Well, okay I did- but not because I saw a Microbus.

Slug Bug never started out as a game thought up by VW, it has been ripped off for their own marketing purposes which makes me madder than an old lady who sees her husband's brand new bottle of Viagra on February 13th.

Was "Punch Bug" to us as well. And yeah, sucks that they changed it to "Punch DUB," WTF does that even mean?! Absolutely nothing. Talk about super lame.

If parents are going to teach their kids about cars, teach them about REAL cars. Play a game like "spot the classics" or something like that (that's not a real game- just came up with it.) My dad told me to look out for license plates from different states- that kept ME busy!
